As a result the following minor changes to antibiotic sensitivities reported for specific bacteria will be effective July 2007: taphylococcus aureus susceptibility reports will no longer include Erythromycin. treptococcus agalactiae susceptibility reports will no longer report Cefazolin (an I.V./I.M. antibiotic), Genova Diagnostics CLIA Lic. #34D Medicare Lic. #
2 ID: Page 2 Nitrofurantoin (not a drug of choice for the sites tested), or Erythromycin. Commentary is provided to the practitioner for educational purposes, and should not be interpreted as diagnostic or treatment recommendations. Diagnosis and treatment decisions are the responsibility of the practitioner. Human microflora is influenced by environmental factors and the competitive ecosystem of the organisms in the GI tract. Pathological significance should be based upon clinical symptoms and reproducibility of bacterial recovery. ufficient amounts of Lactobacilli and E. coli appear to be present in the stool. Ample amounts of E. coli have been associated with a balanced gut flora. The "friendly bacteria", Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria, are important for gastrointestinal function, as they are involved in vitamin synthesis, natural antibiotic production, immune defense, digestion, detoxification of pro-carcinogens and a host of other activities. upplementation with Lactobacilli might be considered in selected cases where the organisms are in the low range of normal. Bifidobacteria is below optimal levels. Ideally, levels of Lactobacillus and E. coli should be 2+ or greater. Bifidobacteria being a predominate anaerobe should be recovered at levels of 4+. A 1+ quantity of yeast is considered an acceptable amount of yeast in the stool. It may, however, reflect a condition of yeast overgrowth, especially when moderate or many yeast are reported on the microscopic (parasitology) exam, or may lead to symptoms in individuals showing deficient beneficial bacteria.

3 Prescriptive Agents ERRATIA MARCECEN I R Amox./Clavulanic Acid R Ampicillin R Cephalothin R Ciprofloxacin Tetracycline Trimethoprim/ulfa Indicates susceptibility to prescriptive agents I Indicates intermediate susceptibility to prescriptive agents R Indicates resistance to prescriptive agents Natural Agents ERRATIA MARCECEN Berberine Oregano Plant Tannins Uva-Ursi Prescriptive Agents: Microbial testing has been performed in vitro to determine antibiotic sensitivity and resistance at standard dosages. Prudent use of antimicrobials requires knowledge of appropriate blood or tissue levels of those agents. Antibiotics that appear in the "" (susceptible) column are more effective at inhibiting the growth of this organism. Antibiotics that appear in the "I" (intermediate) column are partially effective at inhibiting the growth of this organism. Antibiotics that appear in the "R" (resistant) column allow continued growth of the organism in vitro and are usually less effective clinically. Inappropriate use of antibacterials often results in the emergence of resistance. Natural Agents: In this assay, "inhibition" is defined as the reduction level on organism growth as a direct result of inhibition by a natural substance. The level of inhibition is an indicator of how effective the natural substance was at limiting the growth of an organism in an in vitro envrionment. High inhibition indicates a greater ability by the natural substance to limit growth, while a lesser ability to limit growth. These natural products should be considered investigational in nature and not be viewed as standard clinical treatment substances. usceptibility to tetracycline is predictive for susceptibility to minocycline, however in vitro resistance to tetracycline may or may not accurately predict resistance to minocycline. Call the Medical Director if consultation is required. This test has been developed and its performance characteristics determined by Genova Diagnostics, Inc.
